2. When the woes of life o'ertake me, 3. When the sun of bliss is beaming 4.

The resurrection of Christ. 1. MORNING breaks upon the tomb : 2. Christians, dry your flowing tears; 3. Ye who are of death afraid, 4. So the rising sun appears, Chase the terrors of the night. 417. P. M. MONTHLY REPOSITORY. [Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted. Matth. v. 4.] 1. COME, ye who mourn, and dry your tears, 2. Come, ye who mourn the sinner's choice, 3.

Come, ye who weep departed friends, Lo! o'er the grave hope's rainbow bends, 418. L. M. LIVERPOOL COLLECTION. Pious confidence in God. 1. How rich the blessings, O my God, Which teach this grateful heart to glow; How kindly pour'd, and free bestow'd, The rivers of thy mercy flow! 2.

So shall our suns of hope arise, The God of peace shall meet thee there, He makes that house his home. R |
